The US President’s support announcement is coming as he “surveyed damage from Hurricane Milton in Florida” on Sunday 13 October, 2024.
According to President Biden: “Today in Florida, I announced $612 million for new grid projects to support communities impacted by Hurricanes Helene and Milton.
This funding will make the impacted region’s power system stronger and more resilient – by putting lines underground and introducing cutting-edge technologies to reduce the frequency and duration of power outages while extreme weather events become more frequent.
“Earlier I surveyed damage from Hurricane Milton in Florida.
My Administration has been working around the clock to make sure the people of Florida have everything they need to recover and rebuild.
And we will be here for as long as it takes.
“Today, I was personally able to say thank you to the brave first responders in Florida responding to Hurricane Milton.
This is all a team effort – and their brave efforts made a difference and saved lives.
“To those impacted by Hurricane Milton – my Administration will continue to do everything we can to help you recover and build back stronger.”
